"Good Master. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "A slightly immature voice sounded after bowing respectfully.

"Hmm." replied lightly, without too many mood swings, and then walked over trembling step by step.

It wasn't until the old man had walked for a long distance that his bowed body straightened up, revealing a delicate face, clear eyes, a slightly thin figure, carrying a bamboo basket behind his back, and a few hares and pheasants hanging on his body, looking like he had just returned from hunting, and looked like he was about thirteen or fourteen years old.

His name is Lin Xin. Children in the countryside are in charge of the family at an early age, and children of his age in the village have begun to help their parents do some more important work. As for hunting, for safety, you must be at least seventeen or eighteen years old before you are allowed to go by your family. And it's only with some experienced old hunters that I'm more at ease. No parent would be willing to do this if they went alone, but Lin Xin was a little different.

Before coming to this village, Lin Xin was a little beggar, when he was ten years old, he was too hungry, grabbed a few steamed buns and was seriously injured by the shopkeeper, and then fell on the road, and was met by the second uncle Lin from the village to the city, and then saved by the way, but the injury was really serious, and when he returned to the stone village, he was only half a breath. Everyone in the village had a simple heart, so they carried Lin Xin to the master's house with exquisite medical skills for treatment. After a few days of treatment, he was pulled back from the ghost gate.

After that, although Lin Xin couldn't see anything on the surface, he was very grateful to the people in this village, especially the master and Second Uncle Lin. Later, Lin Xin simply lived in this village, firstly, there was no place to stay, and secondly, Lin Xin felt that it was much better in the village than outside, so he lived in the broken temple in the east of the village.

The Jiangxia Continent is a continent that will never end for mortals, and the Chu Yue Kingdom is the smallest of the many countries in the Jiangxia Continent.

Stone Village, for Chu Yueguo, is not worth mentioning at all, it is a small mountain village far away from the bustling metropolis.

Because it is relatively remote, the village is not very large, so there are no obvious streets, and the houses are scattered and scattered, from the east end of the village to the west end of the village, there are only forty or fifty families in total. And most of them are from Orion, and what they usually get from hunting can be sold in the village, without having to go to a small town far away from here, because there is a shop in the village that the Thunder Dragon Gang has opened a rudder, called the Thunder Dragon Hall. Buy herbs, animal skins and the like at low prices. But it's not too low, at most it's lower than the town, half a percent, the price seems to be fair, many people in the village are willing to sell here, after all, no one wants to go all the way to the town, and although the price is higher, but if you don't have a certain experience in the rivers and lakes, it is easy to be deceived, the rivers and lakes are sinister, many villagers have suffered losses, and there is no good feeling about the town.

In the Thunder Dragon Hall, some daily necessities and other items are also sold. Like the common gold sore medicine that can heal wounds, there are blood and scatter everything, but these villagers buy less, the villagers are all medicine pickers, and there are many kinds of homemade earthworks in this area, and some ordinary small injuries and illnesses can be cured by themselves, and there is no need to spend this unjust money.

After Lin Xinping Suri finished practicing martial arts in the morning, he went to Zhang Fuzi in the west of the village to read and write. And the kung fu practice,It's the village that has been circulating since the beginning of the "Tiger Fist", this set of boxing moves is not very many, but it is mainly in terms of speed and endurance to improve relatively large, the actual use of fighting is not too big, the move is relatively single. Because most of the people in this village are from Orion, learning martial arts can not only help hunting, but also strengthen the body, and Chu Yue Kingdom itself is also a fierce people, and everyone is martial. Lin Xin's remaining time is to help with some farm work, so he doesn't have much time to play with other children of the same age, and there are not many people he knows.

And Zhang Fuzi, only the older generation in the village knows better, it is said that he was originally an outsider, he was a talented person when he was young, and later failed to pass the exam several times. That's how to put out this thought. He set up a private school in Stone Village, taught the children in the village, and at the same time his own medical skills were extremely exquisite, and there were many diseases that others could not help, for him a few medicines or a single acupuncture could be cured. Therefore, the people of the village respected him very much.

Because the village is not rich in the first place, the fees for the master's private school are not very expensive, and they can be paid back slowly. Although most of the people in the village can't read a few words, they also have a deep understanding of the restrictions brought about by illiteracy, mainly because of how could there be any private school in such a remote mountain village before, and there is no such condition to delay, and now that there are such conditions, they naturally don't want their children to follow their own old path, and would rather have a tight life at home to let them have a little knowledge. Don't look at the master's usual unsmiling, it looks old-fashioned, but in terms of thinking, he is not as old-fashioned as the average literati, take the private school as an example, the master is to encourage women to go to private school, for this reason he also deliberately exempted women from school tuition, in the situation at that time, in their point of view, women have to marry anyway, the daughter who marries out of the water, learns to waste the family's money, for the master's opinion is much conflicting, fortunately, most of the villages are Orion families, generally quite bold, It is also because this village is too remote, without too much influence from the outside, it is faster to accept this aspect, but not everyone accepts it.

And Lin Xin, whether it is martial arts or literacy in the village, is very attentive, maybe he is really talented, and he has also trained his small body a lot in the past two years, even if he is helping to do some heavy work. In terms of literacy, he is also good at understanding and can often draw inferences from others and make rapid progress.

Since last year, Lin Xin has begun to become self-reliant. A few hours away from the village, there is an unknown mountain forest, where the hunters of the village hunt and gather medicinal herbs. Lin Xin followed the old hunter to hunt and collect medicine in the mountains from the beginning, and later he could go hunting alone. But he definitely didn't dare to go to the depths of the mountains, because the old Orion with deep qualifications in the village had already told him that there were not only powerful beasts in the depths of the mountains, but also groups of ferocious silver wolves, etc., in short, they were extremely dangerous. In the past, there were also powerful hunters who took advantage of their own abilities, and they also went into the mountains to hunt wild beasts, but so far there is no news, and their whereabouts are unknown. It was much later that some tattered clothes were found on the edge, supposedly worn by the hunter before he entered the mountains. Therefore, Lin Xin was only hunting and collecting medicinal herbs at the edge, and did not dare to really go deep into the mountains and forests, so he has gained a lot with his wit and bravery over the years. is still living a good life, but Lin Xin did not settle down, but saved up the extra money every time to buy some martial arts training needs, because Lin Xin did not want to live here for the rest of his life, but wanted to go out for a while after he had enough power to protect himself in the future. This is his own secret, and Lin Xin has never revealed it like anyone else outside.

"Tsk, Xiao Linzi is back, it's been almost half a month." As soon as Lin Xingang walked into the Thunder Dragon Hall, a middle-aged man wearing a satin robe and a slightly chubby appearance, stopped the abacus he was dialing at this moment, and said with a smile. looks loyal and honest, but the beard on his face is brushed away, giving people a strange feeling that this person is both loyal and treacherous.

When Lin Xin heard this, he rolled his eyes and secretly said to himself about the old fox, but he smiled innocently on his face and replied, "Yes, Uncle Zhong, it's true that I haven't seen you for a long time." Then he walked to the center of the hall, put the bamboo basket and other things on the table, poured a cup of tea and drank it, it seemed to be very familiar with this place, and there were two other people dressed as small servants in the hall, who were busy sorting out medicinal materials and wiping the vases in the hall, etc., and they were accustomed to Lin Xin's appearance.

"Hehe, it looks like the harvest is good, and I brought something good, I'm looking forward to it." The middle-aged fat man's eyes narrowed, and he said something seemingly carelessly.
